Someone asked on Perlmonks if a hash could do fuzzy matches on keys - this
is the result.
If there's no exact match on the key that you pass to the hash, then the
key is treated as a regex and the first matching key is returned. You can
force it to leap straight into the regex checking by passing a qr'ed regex
into the hash like this:
my $val = $h{qr/key/};
exists and delete also do regex matching. In the case of delete all values
matching your regex key will be deleted from the hash.

Change the way Perl modules are installed, update the default Perl to 5.18.
Before, we had:
site_perl : lib/perl5/site_perl/5.18
site_perl/perl_arch : lib/perl5/site_perl/5.18/mach
perl_man3 : lib/perl5/5.18/man/man3
Now we have:
site_perl : lib/perl5/site_perl
site_arch : lib/perl5/site_perl/mach/5.18
perl_man3 : lib/perl5/site_perl/man/man3
Modules without any .so will be installed at the same place regardless of the

The vast majority of pkg-descr files had the following format when they
had both lines:
Author: ...
WWW: ....
So standardize on that, and move them to the end of the file when necessary.
Also fix some more whitespace, and remove more "signature tags" of varying
forms, like -- name, etc.
s/AUTHOR/Author/
A few other various formatting issues
